EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Rezone Application No. R-04-04, filed by LZR, Inc. and owner Polk Street Project LLC propose to
rezone approximately 18 acres of property on the west side of North Polk Avenue between West
McKinley Avenue and West Clinton Avenues from RR (Rural Residential, Fresno County zoning)
to R-1/UGM (Single-Family Residential District/UGM Area). Vesting Tentative Tract Map
Application No. 5251/UGM, requests authorization to subdivide approximately 18 acres of this
property into 84 single family residential lots. The rezone and tract map applications are
recommended for approval by staff and by the West Area Plan Advisory Committee, which
reviewed this project on January 3, 2005. Approval of these applications will bring the zoning
and use of the property into conformance with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the West
Area Community Plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL FINDING
The initial study prepared for Environmental Assessment (EA) No. T-5251/R-04-04 considered
potential environmental impacts associated with the rezoning and subdivision of this 18±-acre
site. The initial study indicates that these applications, if approved, would create a project that
conforms to the land use designation and policies (the Urban Form Element) of the 2025 Fresno
General Plan and West Area Community Plan. The information received during this initial study
confirms that the potential environmental impacts associated with this project would be within the
scope of the City of Fresno's Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) No. 10130, which was
prepared and certified for the 2025 Fresno General Plan and adoption of the West Area
Community Plan.
Therefore, a Finding of Conformance with MEIR No. 10130 was posted on February 25, 2005,
incorporating a Mitigation Monitoring Checklist. A notice of this environmental finding was
published in the Fresno Bee on February 25, 2005. No appeals on it were received as of the
comment/appeal deadline.
BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
Rezone Application No. R-04-04 proposes to rezone a 17.95-acre existing parcel (Assessor's
Parcel Number 312-111-35), located on the west side of North Polk Avenue midway between
West McKinley and West Clinton Avenues, from the RR District (Rural Residential, Fresno County
zoning) to R-1/UGM (Single Family Residential DistrictlUrban Growth Management Area).
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. T-5251/UGM proposes to subdivide approximately 17.11 acres
of this property into 84 single-family residential lots.
The 2025 Fresno General Plan and West Area Community Plan designate the subject property for
medium density residential use. The rezone application conforms to the 2025 Fresno General
Plan's Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix, which provides for a developed
density of 4.99 to 10.37 dwelling units per acre. The project's residential density, after dedication
of major street right-of-way along North Polk Avenue, will be 4.91 dwelling units per acre.
Although the final developed density for Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5251/UGM will be
slightly below the 4.98 unit-per-acre lower threshold of "medium density residential," Fresno
Municipal Code Section 12-403-B-2.b(1) allows residential projects to be held consistent with the
general and community plan if the developed project meets density criteria for the next-lowest
residential land use designation. The next-lowest density designation, "medium-low density
residential," allows 2.19 to 4.98 dwelling units per acre. Therefore, pursuant to the Fresno
Municipal Code, the 84 lots on 18± acres proposed by Vesting Tentative Tract Map
No. 5251/UGM is consistent with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the West Area Community.
Land .uses surrounding this proposed subdivision are typical of the West Area's transitional
nature: to the immediate west and south of the project are rural residential homes on RR-zoned
parcels (located in the unincorporated area). A new R-1/UGM-zoned single-family subdivision,
Tentative Tract Map No. 5284, is located across North Polk Avenue east of this project (this tract
REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION . . -
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No..,T-5251/UGM, Rezone No. R-04-04

March 23, 2005
is in the Final Tract Map approval stage). Abutting the northern boundary of this proposed
subdivision is a new Central Unified School District school (Polk Elementary School), on a 20-acre
R-1/UGM zoned site that has been annexed into the City. Vesting Tentative Tract No 5251/UGM
can be considered an "infill" project in that it provides for a more contiguous City boundary and
provides for a logical extension of urban infrastructure.
Notices of the Planning Commission hearing on this vesting tentative tract map and rezoning were
mailed to the school district and to all property owners having land within a 500-foot radius of the
tract map's boundaries. The Fresno Municipal Code requires only a 350-foot radius but this is
intended to be extended when a major street would fall within the boundary for mailing notices;
therefore, additional parcels were included by enlarging the mailing radius. These notices were
mailed on Friday, March 11, 2005, using County Assessor's records of designated property tax bill
recipients to obtain the mailing list.
As of Monday, March 21, no appeals were received regarding the subdivision or the rezoning.
One property owner with land west of this proposed tract called to ask about potential water
supply impacts of this project (whether it would have a City well). The Water Division does not
propose to use any of the land in this tract for a water well pump station, and the caller was
referred to Fresno County Environmental Health for her concerns regarding the current quality of
her private well water.
Traffic Capacity: Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System
The 2025 Fresno General Plan and West Area Community Plan designate North Polk Avenue as
an arterial street requiring a four-lane 110-foot right-of-way with center median. In order to
provide for safe vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian travel, this project is required to dedicate and
construct full street improvements along its Polk Avenue frontage (two tract lots side onto Polk
Avenue). North Polk Avenue improvements required within the tract include permanent paving
with striped lanes (including bike lane), transitional pavement as necessary at the northern and
southern edges of the project, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and street lighting (supplied by
undergrounded utilities), installation of a median island with controlled breaks, and lane striping
(including bicycle lane).
There is a rural residence "embedded" in this tract's Polk Avenue frontage, resulting from a
Fresno County Parcel Line Adjustment that preceded filing of this tract map (the County issued a
Certificate of Compliance for this parcel, which is APN 312-350-51). This parcel is not a part of
the tract and is not a tract remainder. UGM street improvements are required along the Polk
Avenue frontage of the rural residence, as provided for by the UGM Ordinance and by Fresno
Municipal Code Sections 11-226(f)(6) and 12-4.501; 2025 Fresno General Plan Policies
Nos. E-1-c, E-1 j, E-1-n, E-3-e; and West Area Community Plan Policies Nos. W-1-c and W-2-d.
To provide for safe transit of pedestrians, to accommodate persons with disabilities, to provide for
General Plan and West Area Community Plan consistency, and to address concerns expressed
by Central Unified School District (in a letter dated January 10, 2005 and attached to the tract
map conditions), a four-foot(4') wide asphalt path is required along the frontage of this parcel.
REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. T-5251/UGM, Rezone No. R-04-04
Page 5
March 23, 2005
These requirements are outlined in detail in the Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5251/UGM
Conditions of Approval, dated March 23, 2005, per a memorandum prepared by the Public Works
Department Transportation Planning Section, dated January 11, 2005 (copy attached to
Conditions of Approval for Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5251/UGM).
Tract 5251/UGM lots abutting North Polk Avenue (lots which side onto this arterial street) require
a waiver (prohibition) of direct access to Polk Avenue and "back-up" treatment: installation of a
solid masonry wall and a landscape strip at least 20' deep, per West Area Community Plan
policies. The rural residential home site that exists between these side-on lots is not a part of the
subdivision map. Except for the above-mentioned requirement that this property's frontage be
dedicated and improved City UGM standards for arterial streets--two center travel lanes with
median—and the required dedication and improvement of a temporary asphalt path for a safe
route to school, the existing driveway and frontage of this property will remain as is.
Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) No. 10130, certified by the City Council for the
2025 Fresno General Plan, determined that project-specific traffic assessments would be required
for projects which would generate 100 or more vehicle trips during weekday peak commute hours.
Given the number of lots in this project, no special traffic study is required (per Public Works
Transportation Planning Division's January 11, 2005 memorandum) and the potential traffic
impacts of this plan-consistent development are deemed to have been adequately analyzed and
mitigated within the scope of MEIR No. 10130 and standard City requirements.
The City of Fresno's Public Works Department Engineering Division Transportation Planning
Section has analyzed this project and determined that development of 84 single-family homes can
be expected to generate approximately 823 average vehicle trips per weekday (ADT), with 64 to
87 of those trips occurring during peak hours (please refer to the attached Transportation
Planning Section memorandum on Rezone Application No. R-04-04, dated June 17, 2004). The
tract will take access from North Polk Avenue and it is anticipated that the majority of these trips
would utilize this arterial street.
North Polk Avenue has an ultimate capacity of 31,700 to 47,900 ADTs in its fully developed
divided configuration. For portions where only the center section (center two travel lanes) are
developed, the estimated capacity is at least 10,000 vehicle trips per day. Fresno COG's 2003
Traffic Monitoring Report contains data from a five-year cycle of traffic counting on all major
streets in Fresno City and County. The Monitoring Report shows that, north of the
McKinley Avenue intersection, North Polk Avenue had 333 northbound daily trips and
513 southbound daily trips (2002 data). Given this low number of ADTs, North Polk Avenue is not
near its traffic capacity, even on segments in the project vicinity that are only developed with two
travel lanes.
The Public Works Department staff has concluded that this project does not have significant
adverse impacts upon the City's transportation system, and that its non-significant impacts are
mitigable through the City's standard UGM process and project requirements for developments
that abut major streets. In concert with the other developments that are approved pursuant to the
2025 Fresno General Plan, the project will be required to install improvements and to pay fees
REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION

March 23, 2005
toward development of the major street system as outlined in the Public Facilities Element of the
General Plan, and will be required to provide for the installation of traffic control measures
(such as signals and stop signs) installed per UGM policies and per ongoing traffic studies (which
involve the cooperation of Fresno County for intersections having one or more unincorporated
corners).
A Caltrans December 21, 2004 project comment letter (copy attached) asserts that MEIR
No. 10130 prepared for the 2025 Fresno General Plan did not address cumulative impacts to
transportation and air quality for projects such as this. The MEIR did, in fact, analyze full buildout
of the land uses proposed in the 2025 Fresno General Plan and West Area Community Plan, did
provide mitigation measures for this development, and the City Council did make findings of over-
riding considerations for any significant transportation and air quality impacts which may remain
after feasible mitigation measures had been implemented. Appendix 2 of the MEIR shows that
Polk Avenue is expected to maintain a Level of Service C with full implementation of MEIR
mitigation measures. Therefore, additional analysis of this project, which is of a size below that
requiring a specific traffic impact study, is not warranted. The City considered Caltrans comments
in preparing the initial study, and considered the subsequent correspondence in preparing this
staff report, and determined that this project does not create any impacts, including cumulative
impacts, that were not identified in the MEIR. Therefore, City staff recommends that a Finding of
Conformity is appropriate without imposing additional mitigation measures as requested by
Caltrans.
Although the City has met its legal obligations for addressing impacts to the transportation system
for purposes.of CEQA, the City has not ruled out working with Caltrans to obtain fees for the state
highway system for development projects. At this time, the City is working with Caltrans to
develop a legally permissible means for collecting impact fees. A legally permissible means for
collecting impact fees under the Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code §§ 60000, et
seq.) among other things, would require a capital improvement plan, a nexus/rough
proportionality study that demonstrated a property owner/developer's proportionate share of costs
to those capital improvements, and an accounting system for using funds collected.
Along with other cities and Fresno County, the City of Fresno has partnered with the Fresno
County Council of Governments and Caltrans on a regional study for the greater Fresno-Clovis-
Madera Metropolitan ,area. This study may provide the nexus/rough proportionality study
necessary for determining a developer's proportionate responsibility for capital improvements to
the state highway system.
In addition to a proportionate share study, a mechanism would be needed for the City to collect
monies and to either hold those monies, or hand over those monies to a separate agency, for
improvements to facilities the City does not control or maintain. The City has offered to cooperate
with Caltrans in developing such a mechanism, including using the model used by the City for
collecting fees for FMFCD, entering into a Joint Powers Authority, and/or entering a Memorandum
of Understanding.

Local Streets and Access Points
Local interior streets in the tract will be public streets and will have a capacity for up to
1,000 average daily vehicle trips. None of the local streets are expected to carry traffic volumes
that would exceed this capacity.
The Public Works Department Transportation Planning Section has reviewed this project and set
requirements for major street access. This project will provide two entry streets accessing North
Polk Avenue, both of which will be limited to right-in and right-out turns.
Landscaping/Walls:
The developer will be required to install and maintain a masonry soundwall along North Polk
Avenue, behind a 20' deep landscape strip, within the limits of the tract (i.e., on the sides of the
two tract lots abutting Polk Avenue). This landscape strip is eligible for annexation into a City
Community Facilities District for landscape maintenance. Street trees are required to be installed
along North Polk Avenue (and may be incorporated into the landscape strip), and along all local
streets on the interior of the tract. Front yard landscaping is required per 2025 Fresno General
Plan design standards and West Area Community Plan policies. Landscape and irrigation plans
are required to be approved prior to approval of the final tract map.
Water Resources and Public Water Supply
The applicant is required to implement 2025 Fresno General Plan public facilities and resource
conservation policies, as well as MEIR No. 10130 mitigation measures, to provide for a safe,
sustainable, and reliable water supply for this project. These measures include providing for
construction of water supply and conveyance infrastructure, payment of UGM fees to
proportionately reimburse the cost of installation of the 14-inch water transmission grid main in
North Polk Avenue, and payment of UGM fees toward completion water wells with on-site
treatment facilities. Water mains are required to be installed throughout the tract and connected
to the grid main at two points. Separate water services, with meter boxes, shall be provided for
each lot with payment of connection fees. Per Fire Prevention Bureau standards, 1,500 gpm
flows are required.to be available for the residential fire hydrants that the developer is required to
install in the project.
Sewage Collection and Treatment
The Department of Public Utilities has determined that, with standard requirements for
infrastructure improvements (including UGM provisions and mitigation measures required by
MEIR No. 10130), there is adequate sewer collection and treatment capacity for this project.
Several major wastewater facility improvements have been implemented by the Department of
Public Utilities in order to accommodate population growth, employment, and related development
in the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area. The Regional Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation
Facility has been upgraded to enable processing of 80 million gallons per day (mgd), sufficient to
REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. T-5251/UGM, Rezone No. R-04-04
Page 8
March 23, 2005
accommodate the volume of wastewater to be generated by this proposed project and other
planned urban development in the area. Improvements at the Wastewater Treatment and
Reclamation Facility are ongoing to enhance the wastewater treatment process to produce better
quality effluent, and sludge recycling facilities.
The proposed subdivision will connect to the public wastewater treatment system by means of a
10-inch sanitary sewer main located in North Polk Avenue. A proportionate share of cost for
major sewer collection facilities in the project vicinity is to be assessed for this project under the
UGM program, and sewer connection fees are required for each lot to provide for regional
collection and treatment infrastructure. The subdivider is required to design and install sewer
lines to City standard for the local streets of the project, and each lot is required to have a
separate sewer connection to the public system.
Drainage and Flood Control
Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD) is a special district chartered by State
legislation for the purpose of providing for flood control and drainage facilities in the central portion
of Fresno County (in the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area and eastward). Through FMFCD's
contractual agreement with the City of Fresno, all development projects are required to comply
with FMFCD project conditions. FMFCD assesses fees on residential subdivisions to pay for
drainage basin and storm drain facilities. FMFCD also reviews grading plans to ensure that tract
lots drain to the street, where the curb and gutter act as the first part of the stormwater collection
and conveyance system.
This project is located partially in FMFCD Drainage Area "Cl." FMFCD drainage facility fees
assessed for this tract are $118,069 (as of FMFCD's January 26, 2005 Notice of Requirements,
attached to tract map conditions).
FMFCD is not recommending that temporary on-site drainage facilities be provided, if permanent
facilities are installed as required. In order to provide for major storm event relief, a drainage
easement with swale or other structure will need to extend form the school site to the north,
through one of the tract lots, and to the local street system within the tract.
Owners of the rural residential parcels south of Tract 5251/UGM are resistant to allowing a
drainage easement from the southwest corner of the tract, through their property, to West
McKinley Avenue. The applicant's engineer has been consulting with Fresno Metropolitan Flood
Control District on alternatives, and FMFCD's Master Planning Division is considering an
alternative whereby tract drainage would alternatively be directed to North Polk Avenue using the
route of tract streets. FMFCD is not yet prepared to provide a revised Notice of Requirements.
This issue will be revisited, and the tract's proposed drainage design will be reviewed again, when
detailed grading and drainage plans are prepared for Tract 5251/UGM.

Subdivision Lot Sizes and Dimensions:
T-5251/UGM is consistent with the proposed R-1/UGM zoning and with 2025 Fresno General Plan
goals for efficient land use, compact development and aesthetics. All the parcels are at least
6,000 square feet in size, and conform to the West Area Community Plan policies. The applicant
affirms that West Area Community Plan setback requirements may be accommodated on the
parcels abutting the "embedded" rural residences.
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP No. T-5251/UGM
Tentative Tract Map Findings
The Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code Section 66400 et. seq.) requires that a
proposed subdivision not be approved unless the map, together with its design and improvements,
is found to be consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan (Finding No. 1
below). State law further provides that the proposed subdivision map be denied if any one of
Findings Nos. 2 through 5, below, is made in the negative. In addition, State law requires that a
subdivision be found to provide for future passive and natural heating or cooling opportunities in
the subdivision development (Finding No. 6 below).
1. The proposed subdivision map, together with its design and improvements, is
consistent with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the West Area Community Plan
because the land use element diagrams of these plans designate the site for
Medium Density Residential land uses and Fresno Municipal Code
Section 12-403-6-2.b(1) allows the proposed 4.91 units per acre to be held
consistent. The project design meets the applicable General and Community plan
policies and zoning ordinance criteria for development.
2. This site is physically suitable for the proposed type and density of development
because conditions of approval will insure adequate access and drainage on and
off the site.
3. The proposed subdivision design and improvements are not likely to cause
substantial and considerable damage to the natural environment, including fish,
wildlife or their habitat, because of the urbanized nature of the area in which the
site is located and the area's long-term developed uses for agriculture and rural
residential development.
4. The proposed subdivision design and improvements are not likely to cause serious
public health and safety problems, because the conditions of approval will insure
that the subdivision conforms with City health and safety standards including (but
not limited to) the extension of sanitary sewer service and a large community water
system utility to each dwelling.
REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.T-5251/UGM, Rezone No. R-04-04
Page 10
March 23, 2005
5. The proposed subdivision design will not conflict with public easements within or
through the site, because conditions of approval will assure noninterference with
any existing or proposed public easements.
6. The design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive
and natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision, because of the
appropriate use and placement of landscaping plant materials and because of the
orientation of the proposed lots.
The subdivision map, subject to the recommended conditions of approval, complies with the
design and property development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and the local
Subdivision Ordinance. Based upon plans and information submitted by the applicant and
recommended conditions of project approval, staff has determined that these findings can be
made.
Subdivision Conditions of Approval
1. Development shall take place in accordance with the Vesting Tentative Tract Map
No. 5251/UGM exhibit dated March 4, 2005 (corrected from the original
December 20, 2004 version to reflect street name changes and installation of the
drainage swale from the school site to the north).
2. Development shall take place in accordance with the proposed Conditions of
Approval for Vesting Tentative Tract No. 5251/UGM, dated March 23, 2005.
3. Development shall take place in accordance with the Master Environmental
Impact Report (MEIR) mitigation measures identified in the Finding of
Conformance with the 2025 Fresno General Plan MEIR pursuant to
Environmental Assessment No. T-5251/R-04-04, dated February 25, 2005.
Planning Commission action on Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5251/UGM and Tract Map
Conditions shall be final unless the Commission's decision appealed to the City Council.
REZONING APPLICATION No. R-04-04
Finding of Plan.Consistency for Rezoning
The proposed rezoning of 17.95 acres of subdivision property from RR (Rural
Residential, Fresno County zoning) to R-1/UGM (Single Family Residential
District/Urban Growth Management Area) is consistent with, and implements, the
adopted West Area Community Plan and the 2025 Fresno General Plan.
The Commission's recommendation on this rezoning application will be forwarded to the City
Council for final action.

CITY-WIDE DESIGN GUIDELINES ADOPTED FOR THE 2025 FRESNO GENERAL PLAN:
I. SITE DESIGN
PURPOSE OF SITE DESIGN:
Promote the improvement of the visual and built environment
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Site Design combines the three elements of development: 1) buildings; 2) parking and
circulation, and 3) landscape and amenities. These aspects must be in proper balance.
2. Buildings shall be designed and sited so as to provide a strong functional relationship to
the site and the neighborhood. Required side and rear yards should be utilized and
should be integrated into the overall purposeful arrangement. Inaccessible yards and
similar outdoor spaces which tend to encourage storage, gathering of trash, and weeds
shall be avoided, unless approved by the Director.
3. Natural site amenities shall be recognized. Views, trees, creeks and similar features
unique to the site should be preserved and incorporated into development proposals.
Such features shall be considered as strong site design determinants. Disruption of
existing natural features, particularly older trees, shall be minimized.
4. Building setbacks must relate to the character of the existing streetscape. Where
existing streets have been widened, thereby changing setbacks, field analysis of
setback needs should be required for new buildings.
5. Site designs shall not negatively impact the immediate environment of the site.
6. Separate vehicular and pedestrian circulation systems shall be provided for larger
projects. Pedestrian access to residential developments generally shall not utilize
driveways and pick-up areas. Pedestrian linkages between uses in commercial
developments shall be emphasized, including distinct pedestrian access from parking
areas in large commercial developments such as shopping centers.
7. Provision must be made for bicycles. Bicycle parking in residential developments
should be on an all-weather surface and be located close to dwelling unit or residential
development entrances. Bicycle parking shall be lockable.
8. On larger commercial sites such as shopping centers, a portion of the total building area
shall be located at the street perimeter. Such siting, together with substantial landscape
treatment, reinforces and strengthens the streetscape, and helps to screen off-street
parking areas.
9. Common driveways, which provide vehicular access to more than one site, are
encouraged.
10. Site development shall give consideration to solar access and/or energy efficiency.
- 1 -
2025 Fresno General Plan City-Wide Design Guidelines
Page 2
11. The siting and orientation of buildings shall respond to the pedestrian and vehicular
nature of the street. Buildings on streets of high pedestrian use (such as downtown)
should face on, and be directly accessible from, the sidewalk., with minimal interruption
by driveways or parking areas. Buildings on streets with heavy vehicular traffic,
particularly those with no on-street parking, should provide a major entry for the off-
street parking area.
12. Off-street parking facilities need to be located to the rear of sites. Street frontages
should be devoted to building architecture and landscaping. Parking should be
screened from the street with mounds, vegetative screening, low wall, fencing, or
lowered parking grade. (Refer to III. LANDSCAPING, No. 15).
1.3. Screening and buffering, as well as good design, needs to be used to mitigate the
effects of trash areas, storage areas, service yards, loading docks and ramps, electrical
and other utility boxes, mechanical equipment, and other necessary but unsightly
aspects.
II. BUILDING DESIGN
PURPOSE OF BUILDING DESIGN
Development shall improve the visual and built environment of the neighborhood and the
City as a whole.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. No single theme is required in Fresno. Themes may be established for selected parts of
the community. They are directed more toward standards of quality and compatibility
than toward achieving a uniform appearance.
2. Architectural consistency should exist between all building elevations of a particular
structure or complex of structures, including consistent use of materials. Fagade
treatments shall consistently encompass all building sides. "False" or "decorative"
fagade treatments shall be avoided. All elevations need not look alike; however, an
overall architectural sense must occur.
3. Visible rooftops should be treated as building elevations. Such rooftops should be free
of mechanical equipment "clutter" in situations where it may be visible from surrounding
buildings or structures. Rooftop mechanical equipment is not prohibited, but its design
and screening should be incorporated into building design. For example, HVAC non-
transitional ducts shall be below the roof structure.
4. Mechanical equipment, including wall air conditioners, should be screened from public
view. The design of mechanical equipment screening should be compatible with, and
an integral element of, the building structure. Rooftop screening and other mechanical
equipment screening should be a minimum of 12 inches higher than the equipment
itself.
- 2 -
2025 Fresno General Plan City-Wide Design Guidelines
Page 3
5. Add-on components such as utility meters, ladders, vent pipes and similar features need
to be identified in site plans and not placed as an afterthought in full public view unless
screened in an acceptable manner.
6. All proposed buildings or structures should be compatible with the neighborhood
character. Building design, however, need not be unduly constrained or limited by
structures on adjacent sites.
7. All buildings on the same site should have strong spatial and architectural relationships.
When the first portion of a site area is to be developed, a concept plan shall be
submitted for the entire site.
8. All building design should achieve a sense of human scale. Wall insets, balconies,
window projections, etc. are examples of building elements which may help reduce the
scale of larger buildings.
9. Materials should be relatively permanent, requiring minimum maintenance in order to
avoid deterioration.
10. Building entries should be protected from the elements and should afford a "sense of
entry"for the structure.
11. All designs should be responsive to energy consideration. When energy-conserving
devices such as solar heat collector panels are utilized, such devices should be
designed as visually integral parts of the structure.
12. Modified standards may be considered for temporary buildings are structures, which are
guaranteed to be removed from the site within six (6) months.
13. Each phase of a phased development should be visually complete. Temporary barriers/
walls should be painted and trimmed to compliment the permanent construction.
14. Where buildings are on the border between different uses, there needs to be an
appropriate transition.
15. Standardized and corporate design elements must be modified to be consistent and
integrated with the surrounding environment.
16. The design of fencing, trash enclosures, and similar accessory site elements should be
compatible with the architecture of main buildings and should use a similar palette of
materials.
17. Masonry walls and allowable chain link fences shall be designed to accept vegetation, to
reduce monotony, and to prevent irregular or unsightly lines.

PURPOSE OF LANDSCAPE:
Landscaping shall be used to improve aesthetics, to soften the harshness of the urban
setting, and to create a pleasant human environment.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
1. All site development shall include landscaping, except where determined to be
impossible by the Director.
2. Landscaping shall be designed to provide a strong relationship between the site, street
frontage, and neighborhood.
3. There should be a consistency of landscape design through a development. All areas
within a development need not be identical. Among other things, different landscape
themes may be utilized in larger developments to delineate spaces, strengthen a sense
of place, and to add movement. Such themes should be consistent within a site.
4. Landscape plans shall indicate all proposed site elements, such as outdoor lighting,
signage, fencing, site furnishings, and other site elements.
5. Where possible, existing landscape elements should be incorporated and preserved.
Healthy mature trees and tree groupings shall be preserved as design determinants. In
sites with mature trees, the development plan, elevations, and landscape shall be
required to protect existing trees. Mature trees on project sites shall be protected and
preserved as per City of Fresno tree preservation standards.
6. Landscaping shall be incorporated into building and site design. Trellises, arbors, and
multilevel type landscaping should be considered.
7. All projects, including exterior modifications, are subject to street tree requirements.
Street trees shall meet City requirements.
8. Live plant material shall be used in all landscaped areas. Imitation vegetation is not
acceptable.
9. Gravel, colored rock, bark, and similar materials may be used in conjunction with, but
not instead of, living ground cover and vegetation. Brick, cobblestone, and wood can be
integrated into.pathways and edges where appropriate.
10. Public and employee parking areas shall be landscaped. Such landscaping shall
include perimeter screening and interior shading as per City standards.
11. Automatic irrigation is required for all landscape areas; surface piping and tubing are not
allowed.
12. Irrigation heads shall not overspray walks, buildings, fences, streets, etc.

13. All property owners shall maintain landscaping consistent with these guidelines.
14. Required setbacks for buildings and landscaping may be averaged, but not less than
one-half of the required setback. Proposals for less than one-half of the required
setbacks may be considered through a reduced-fee Variance application process.
15. Major street landscaping shall include all of the following:
• Double-row, large-scale 20'-on-center tree canopies within public and
private landscape areas (curb to end of landscape setback)
• Screening of parking through eye-level (as seen from an automobile)
design elements, including but not limited to landscaping, fences,
artwork, water features, etc.
• One hundred percent screening/blocking is not mandatory.
• Green shall be emphasized: plant material, size, type, and location.
• Project entry/gateways defining sense of place shall be emphasized.
IV. SIGNAGE
PURPOSE OF SIGNAGE:
Signs are intended to identify the location of a place or business or residential
development.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Sign information is to be limited to the identification of the business name and, when
necessary, the business function and business logo. Product advertising shall not be
permitted.
2. Signs should be simple and easy to read.
3. Signs are to be limited to the minimum necessary for the proper use of the site.
4. Signing and related graphics must relate to the overall building and site design. Signing
considerations should be made during the building design stages so that signage and
graphics are architecturally incorporated into those buildings.
5. Unusual architectural features (such as the "golden arches") used as a logo shall be
considered and reviewed as part of the sign proposal.
6. Use of individual letters for all signing is preferred and encouraged over cabinet signs.
Where cabinet signs are utilized, such cabinets must be an integral design element of
the building or structure.
- 5 -
2025 Fresno General Plan City-Wide Design Guidelines
Page 6
7. Master sign programs shall be prepared for multiple-occupancy buildings.
8. Complete sign programs for entire buildings or building complexes should be included
with the architectural review of a signing request for any portion of a multiple-occupancy
building. This also applies to existing buildings without any sign program. A long-term
sign program must be established.
9. The light source of externally illuminated signs should not be visible.
10. Murals shall be subject to sign review.

Subject: R-04-04 (APN 312-350-38 & 312-350-39)
Dear Ms. Brock:
The entire San Joaquin Valley Air Basin is classified non-attainment for ozone
and fine particulate matter (PM10). This project would contribute to the overall
decline in air quality due to increased traffic and ongoing operational emissions.
Although this project alone would not generate significant air emissions, the
increase in emissions from this project, and others like it, cumulatively reduce
the air quality in the San Joaquin Valley. A concerted effort should be made to
reduce project-related emissions as outlined below:
The following items are rules that have been adopted by the District to reduce
emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. The applicant should
be aware that District rules are periodically amended, and new rules are promulgated.
Development will be subject to the rule versions in effect at the time of construction.
Current District Rules can be found at htti)://www.valleyair.org/rules/lruieslist.htm.
Regulation VIII (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions)- Regulation VIII (Rules 8011-8081) is a
series of rules designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated
by human activity, including construction, road construction, bulk materials storage,
landfill operations, etc. A compliance assistance bulletin has been enclosed for the
applicant. A template of the District's Dust Control Plan is available at:
hfp://www.valleyair.org/busind/comply/PM 10/forms/DCP-Form%20-1/x2010-14-
2000.pdf.
Regulation Vlll for a Residential Site:
If a residential project is 10.0 or more acres in area, a Dust Control Plan must be
submitted as specified in Section 6.3.1 of Rule 8021. If a residential site is 1.0 to less
than 10.0 acres, an owner/operator must provide written notification to the District at
least 48 hours prior to his/her intent to begin any earthmoving activities.(see section
6.4.1.).
Ms. Brock January 4, 2005
R-04-04; TSM 5152 Page 2
Rule 4002 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants). In the event
that any portion of an existing building will be renovated, partially demolished or
removed, the project will be subject to District Rule 4002. Prior to any demolition
activity, an asbestos survey of existing structures on the project site may be required to
identify the presence of any asbestos containing building material (ACBM). Any
identified ACBM having the potential for disturbance must be removed by a certified
asbestos-contractor in accordance with CAL-OSHA requirements. If you have any
questions concerning asbestos related requirements, please contact Mr. Dwayne
England of this office at (559) 230-5973, or contact CAL-OSHA at (559) 454-1295. An
Asbestos Requirements Bulletin has been enclosed for the applicant.
Rule 4101 (Visible Emissions) This rule prohibits emissions of visible air contaminants
to the atmosphere and applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air
contaminants. The applicant is must contact the District's Small Business Assistance
Office at (559) 230-5888 to receive additional information/instructions.
Rule 4102 (Nuisance) applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air
contaminants or other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the
project creates a public nuisance, it could be in violation and be subject to District
enforcement action.
Rule 4103 (Open Burning) regulates the burning of agricultural material. Agricultural
material shall not be burned when the land use is converting from agriculture to
nonagricultural purposes. In the event that the project burned or burns agricultural
material, it would be in violation of Rule 4103 and be subject to District enforcement
action.
Rule 4601 (Architectural Coatings) limits volatile organic compounds from architectural
coatings. This rules specifies architectural coatings storage, clean up and labeling
requirements.
Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance
Operations). If asphalt paving will be used, then paving operations of this project will be
subject to Rule 4641. This rule applies to the manufacture and use of cutback asphalt,
slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt for paving and maintenance operations.
Rule 4901 (Wood Burning Fireplaces and Wood Burning Heaters) and Rule 4902
(Residential Water Heaters) limit the emissions of PM10 and NOx in residential
developments. On July 17, 2003, the District's Governing Board adopted amendments
to Rule 4901. Construction plans for residential developments may be affected by
section 5.3, specifically:
§5.3 Limitations on Wood Burning Fireplaces or Wood Burning Heaters in New
Residential Developments.
Beginning January 1, 2004,
Ms. Brock January 4, 2005
R-04-04; TSM 5251 Page 3
5.3.1 No person shall install a wood burning fireplace in a new residential development
with a density greater than two (2) dwelling units per acre.
5.3.2 No person shall install more than two (2) EPA Phase 11 Certified wood burning
heaters per acre in any new residential development with a density equal to or greater
than three (3) dwelling units per acre.
5.3.3 No person shall install more than one (1) wood burning fireplace or wood burning
heater per dwelling unit in any new residential development with a density equal to or
less than two (2) dwelling units per acre.
Rule 4902 (Residential Water Heaters) limits emission of NOx from residential
developments.
More information about Rule 4901 can be found at our website- www.vallevair.org. For
compliance assistance, please contact Mr. Wayne Clarke, Air Quality Compliance
Manager, at 230-5968.
Mitigation
The District encourages innovation in measures to reduce air quality impacts. There are
a number of measures that could be incorporated into the design/operation of this
project to provide additional reductions of the overall level of emissions. (Note: Some
of the measures may already exist as City/County development standards. Any
measure selected should be implemented to the fullest extent possible.) The measures
listed below should not be considered all-inclusive and remain options that the project
proponent should consider:
Trees should be carefully selected and located to protect the building(s) from energy
consuming environmental conditions, and to shade paved areas. Trees should be
selected to shade paved areas that will shade 50% of the area within 15 years.
Structural soil should be used under paved areas to improve tree growth. A brochure
has been included for the applicant.
For Structural Soil see http://www.hort.cornell.edu/uhi/outreach/csc/
For Tree Selection see httQ://www.ufei.org/
For Urban Forestry see htto://www.coolcommunities.org http://wcufr6.ucdavis.edu
http://www.loc.org/bookstore/energv/downloads/siv treeguidelines.pdf
Sidewalks and bikeways should be installed throughout as much of the project as
possible and should be connected to any nearby existing and planned open space
areas, parks, schools, residential areas, commercial areas, etc., to encourage walking
and bicycling. Connections to nearby public uses and commercial areas should be
made as direct as possible to promote walking for some trips. Pedestrian and bike-
oriented design reduces motor vehicle usage and their effects on air quality. Sidewalks
and bikeways should be designed to separate pedestrian and bicycle pathways from
vehicle paths. Sidewalks and bikeways should be designed to be accommodating and
appropriately sized for anticipated future pedestrian and bicycle use. Such pathways
should be easy to navigate, designed to facilitate pedestrian movement through the
project, and create a safe environment for all potential users (pedestrian, bicycle and
disabled) from obstacles and automobiles. Pedestrian walkways should be created to
connect all buildings throughout the project. The walkways should create a safe and
Ms. Brock January 4, 2005
R-04-04; TSM 5251 Page 4
inviting walking environment for people wishing to walk from one building to another.
Walkways should be installed to direct pedestrians from the street sidewalk to the
building(s). Safe and convenient pathways should be provided for pedestrian
movement in large parking lots. Mid-block paths should be installed to facilitate
pedestrian movement through long blocks (over 500' in length) and cul-de-sacs.
Sidewalks should be designed for high visibility (brightly painted, different color of
concrete, etc.) when crossing parking lots, streets and similar vehicle paths. Clearly
marked and highly visible pedestrian accesses create a safer environment for both
pedestrians and vehicles. Pathways through the project should be built in anticipation
of future growth.
Specifically:
As many energy-conserving features as possible should be included in the project.
Energy conservation measures include both energy conservation through design and
operational energy conservation. Examples include (but are not limited to):
Increased energy efficiency (above California Title 24 Requirements)
See http://www.energy.ca.gov/title24/.
Increased wall and ceiling insulation (beyond building code requirements)
Energy efficient widows (double pane and/or Low-E)
Use Low and No-VOC coatings and paints. See South Coast's site for No-VOC
Coatings at http://www.agmd.goy/business/brochures/zerovoc.htmi
High-albedo (reflecting) roofing material. See http://eetd.lbi.gov/coolroof/
Cool Paving. "Heat islands" created by this and similar projects contribute to the
reduced air quality in the valley by heating ozone precursors. See

.Install photovoltaic cells
Install geothermal heat pump system(s)
Programmable thermostat(s) for all heating and cooling systems
Awnings or other shading mechanism for windows
Porch, patio and walkway overhangs
Ceiling fans, whole.house fans
Orient the unit(s) to maximize passive solar cooling and heating when practicable
Utilize passive solar cooling and heating designs. (e.g. natural convection, thermal
flywheels)
See http://www.eere.energy.gov/RE/solar passive.html
Utilize daylighting (natural lighting) systems such as skylights, light shelves, interior
transom windows etc. See http://www.advancedbuildings.org
Electrical outlets around the exterior of the unit(s) to encourage use of electric
landscape maintenance equipment
Bicycle parking facilities for patrons and employees in a covered secure area. Bike
storage should be located within 50' of the project's entrance. Construct paths to
connect the development to nearby bikeways or sidewalks. See
http://www.vtpi.org/tdm/tdm85.htm
Employee shower and locker areas for bicycle and pedestrian commuters
On-site employee cafeterias or eating areas
Ms. Brock January 4, 2005
R-04-04; TSM 5251 Page 5
Low or non-polluting landscape maintenance equipment (e.g. electric lawn mowers, reel
mowers, leaf vacuums, electric trimmers and edgers, etc.)
Pre-wire the unit(s) with high speed modem connections/DSL and extra phone lines
Natural gas fireplaces (instead of wood-burning fireplaces or heaters)
Natural gas lines (if available to this area) and electrical outlets in backyard or patio
areas to encourage the use of gas and/or electric barbecues
Low or non-polluting incentives items should be provided with each residential unit
(such items could include electric lawn mowers, reel mowers, leaf vacuums, gas or
electric barbecues, etc.)
Exits to adjoining streets should be designed to reduce time to re-enter traffic from the
project site
More information can be found at:
http://www.lgc.org, http://www.sustainable.doe.gov/, http://www.consumerener-qvicenter.org/index.htmI
http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/GreenBuilding/
Project design should use models put forward by the Local Government Commission
(LGC) in the "Smart Growth Guidebook," such as; street block patterns that form an
interconnected grid, short block faces, numerous alleys and narrow streets. The LGC
website http://www.lgc.org contains valuable information and resources on subjects from
street design to energy efficiency.
The applicant/tenant(s) should implement measures to reduce the amount of vehicle
traffic to and from the project area that further reduce air pollution in the valley. This
could include such provisions as encouraging employees to rideshare or carpool to the
project site, preferential parking spaces for employees who participate in carpooling or
vanpooling, incorporating a compressed workweek schedule, or incentives for
employees who use alternative transportation. Check out the "Spare the Air" section of
our website www.vallevair.org
Or
The applicant should implement measures to reduce the amount of vehicle traffic to
and from the project area that further reduce air pollution in the valley. This could
include providing an information center for residents to-coordinate carpooling. Check
out the "Spare the Air' section of our website www.vallevair.org
The project should include as many clean alternative energy features as possible to
promote energy self-sufficiency. Examples include (but are not limited to): photovoltaic
cells, solar thermal electricity systems, small wind turbines, etc. Rebate and incentive
programs are offered for alternative energy equipment. More information can found at-
http://www.dsireusa.orq/, http://rredc.nrel.gov/, http://www.energy.ca.goy/renewables/
Information on biodiesel can also be found at CARB's website-
http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/diesel/altdiesel/altdiesel.htm
and the EPA's website http://www.epa.gov/oms/modelstbiodsi.htm.
Construction activity mitigation measures include:
Limit traffic speeds on unpaved roads to 15 mph
Install sandbags or other erosion control measures to prevent silt runoff to public
roadways from sites with a slope greater than one percent-
Ms. Brock January 4, 2005
R-04-04; TSM 5251 Page 6
Install wheel washers for all exiting trucks, or wash off all trucks and equipment leaving
the site
Install wind breaks at windward side(s) of construction areas
Suspend excavation and grading activity when winds exceed 20 mph
Limit area subject to excavation, grading, and other construction activity at any one time
Use catalyst equipped diesel construction equipment.
Minimize idling time (e.g. 10 minute maximum)
Limit the hours of operation of heavy duty equipment and/or the amount of equipment
in use
Replace fossil-fueled equipment with electrically driven equivalents (provided they are
not run via a portable generator set)
Curtail construction during periods of high ambient pollutant concentrations; this may
include ceasing of construction activity during the peak-hour of vehicular traffic on
adjacent roadways, and "Spare the Air Days" declared by the District.
Implement activity management (e.g. rescheduling activities to reduce short-term
impacts)
During the smog season (May through October), lengthen the construction period to,
minimize the number of vehicles and equipment operating at the same time.
Construction equipment should have engines that are Tier II (if available as certified by
the Air Resources Board). Engines built after 1998 are cleaner Tier II engines. Tier I
and Tier II (2.5 gram) engines have a significantly less PM and NOx emissions
compared to uncontrolled engines. To find engines certified by the Air Resources
Board, see http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/offroad/cert/cert.php. This site lists engines by type,
then manufacturer. The "Executive Order" shows what Tier the engine is certified as.
For more information on heavy-duty engines, please contact Mr. Kevin McCaffrey, Air
Quality Specialist, at (559) 230-5831.
Off road trucks should be equipped with on-road engines when.possible.
Light Duty Cars and Trucks should be alternative fueled or hybrids.
Minimize obstruction of traffic on adjacent roadways.
District staff is available to meet with you and/or the applicant to further discuss the
regulatory requirements that are associated with this project. If you have any questions
or require further information, please call me at (559) 230-5800.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS
EXHIBIT NO. 2,
The cost of construction of Master Plan facilities,excluding dedication of storm drainage easements,
is eligible for credit against the drainage fee of the drainage area served by the facilities. A
Development Agreement shall be executed with the District to effect such credit. Reimbursement
provisions, in accordance with the Drainage Fee Ordinance, will be included to the extent that
Developer's Master Plan costs for an individual drainage area exceed the fee of said area. Should the
facilities cost for such individual area total less than the fee of said area,the difference shall be paid
upon demand to the City or District.
A minimum fifteen-foot (15D wide storm drain easement will be required whenever storm drain
facilities are located on private property. No encroachments into the easement will be permitted
including, but not limited to, foundations, roof overhangs, swimming pools, and trees.
The easement may be slightly realigned to accommodate future development,provided the property
owner accepts the responsibility to grade the property such that the drainage from the property will
reach inlets on the alternate pipeline alignment,and accepts any additional costs for the construction
of additional storm drain facilities that may be required. Any proposed storm drain alignments must
be reviewed and approved by the District.
The District recommends a stub street to the south of Tract 5251. This is necessary to provide major
storm breakover from Tract 5251 to the south.
The District will.require the Developer to provide a surface drainage channel in the vicinity of Lots
42 and 43 of the tentative map. The channel must be sized adequately to pass flows from the
properties north of Tract 5251 for major storm events that exceed the District's standard level of
service. The Developer must deed a drainage easement to the District for the area of the surface
.drainage channel.
The construction of the optional facilities as shown on Exhibit No. 1 will provide permanent
drainage service for Tract 5251. If these optional facilities are not constructed the District
recommends temporary facilities until permanent service is available.
Construction of optional facilities would require the Developer to acquire a minimum fifteen-foot
(15') wide storm drain easement as shown on Exhibit No. 1 at no expense to the District. The
District will consider condemnation proceedings for the easements on behalf of the Developer if he
cannot negotiate an acquisition. The Developer shall deposit with the District the estimated
easement and appraisal costs with the Developers authorization to proceed with any acquisition. The
deposit shall include all acquisition costs, including if determined by the District to be warranted,
applicable legal costs.

GUIDELINES FOR PONDING BASIN / POND CONSTRUCTION
AND MANAGEMENT TO CONTROL MOSQUITO BREEDING
Immature mosquitoes develop in shallow water habitats. Fresno has enough year-round
urban runoff from sprinklers, car washing, and pool drainage to keep water in drainage
basins even in the summer--when mosquitoes breed the fastest. The design and
management of ponding basins and ponds is of critical importance for mosquito control.
Following are some new guidelines for these facilities:
`1. Ponding basins and ponds with fluctuating water levels should have a "low flow" area, a
deeper area or sump where drainage will accumulate, instead of a uniform flat bottom. This
allows for water to accumulate to a greater depth, and helps "mosquito fish" survive. The low
flow area should be located at the pond inlet and should be at least four feet deeper than the
rest of the basin floor. The rest of the basin should be graded so that drainage is directed into
this low flow area.
`2. Side slopes of ponds and ponding basins should be as steep as is compatible with
safety and grading considerations. They should have a slope ratio of 1:2 (vertical:horizontal).
3. Decorative ponds and artificial wetlands should be constructed so that water depths are
maintained in excess of four feet, to preclude invasive emergent vegetation such as cattails.
`4. Ponds and ponding basins should be constructed to provide for free, unobstructed access
around their entire perimeter by vehicle and/or by foot, to allow for maintenance and
mosquito abatement activities.
`5. All ponding basins should be enclosed in chain-link fencing at least six feet tali (to City of
Fresno Public Works Standards), with double gates to provide an unobstructed total opening
at least ten feet wide (no center post between the gates). Gates should be secured with a
standard padlock to allow for access by maintenance workers and mosquito and vector
control personnel: a No. 5 MasterLockTm with key numbers 1 C95, 3203 or 0855.
6. Ponds and ponding basins should be constructed to allow easy de-watering when needed.
7. Ponding basin and pond edges should be maintained free of excess vegetation and trash that
would harbor insects and support mosquito breeding when it falls or blows into the water.
8. Ponding basins and ponds should be managed to control algae and emergent vegetation
(plants that emerge from shallow water), to remove harborage for mosquito breeding and to
allow"mosquito fish" and other mosquito predators better access to their prey.
9. Ponding basins and ponds should maintain water quality that supports the survival of
"mosquito fish" (Gambusia affinis, available from local mosquito and vector control agencies).
Use caution when selecting herbicides and pesticides for use in or near ponding basins and
ponds, because many pesticides are toxic to fish.
The asterisked guidelines modify the current City of Fresno Public Works Standard No. P-62 for
Temporary Ponding Basins.

Dear Ms. Brock:
We have reviewed the map and rezone for the project located on the west side of North Polk
Avenue between West McKinley and West Clinton. Caltrans has the following comments:
This project will generate less than the 100 peak hour trips designated by the 2025 General Plan
MEIR as requiring a traffic analysis. However, the City should be aware that continued
development has the potential to create cumulatively significant impacts to both transportation
and air quality. As cumulative impacts to these resources were not addressed in the General Plan
Update Master EIR, the City should consider a mechanismfor evaluating, and mitigating, for
them. Should the City determine that a traffic analysis is necessary for this project, please
provide a copy of the traffic study for our review and comment.
We request that this letter be made a part of the permanent public record for this project and that
a copy of our letter be included in the staff reports for both the City Council and the Planning
Commission. This will provide the decision-making body and the general public with a
complete and accurate environmental evaluation for the project.
Please send a copy of the staff report(s) to Caltrans prior to any scheduled hearings .for this item.
If you have any questions, please call me at (559) 445-6666.
Sincerely,

Environmental Assessment Number: Project Location (including APN):
On the west side of North Polk Avenue, between West McKil
and West Clinton Avenues
T-5251, R-04-04 APN 312-350-39
Project Description:
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5251/UGM proposes to subdivide approximately 18 acres of prop(
located on located on the west side of North Polk Avenue between West McKinley and West Clir
Avenues, into 84 single-family lots and to install related infrastructure to serve this project.
infrastructure includes full widening of North Polk Avenue, required as a health and safety measur(
extend across property that is not a part of this subdivision but lies between portions of tract frontE
Rezone Application No. R-04-04 proposes to change the zoning of this property from R-R (R
Residential, Fresno County zoning ) to R-1/UGM (Single-Family Residential District, Urban Grc
Management Area, City of Fresno zoning). Annexation to the City of Fresno will be required for zoning tc
applied and for construction permits to be issued. The property is planned for medium density use in
2025 Fresno General Plan and West Area Community Plan.
Conformance to Master Environmental Impact Report(MEIR NO. 10130):
The 2025 Fresno General Plan designates the subject property for light industrial planned land use.
current C-M zone district conforms to this land use designation as indicated by the 2025 Fresno Gen
Plan "Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix."
The Planning and Development Department staff has prepared an initial study and environmental chec
and evaluated the requested vesting tentative tract map in accordance with the land use and environme
policies and provisions of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the related Master Environmental Iml
Report (MEIR) No. 10130. The subject property is proposed to be developed with single family reside
housing at an intensity and scale that is permitted by the planned land use and zoning designations for
site. Thus, the proposed rezone and vesting tentative tract map will not facilitate an additional intensifice
of uses beyond that which would be allowed by the above-noted planned land use designation apprc
with the 2025 Fresno General Plan.
The proposed density of this project, approximately 4.6 dwelling units per acre, is consistent with
medium density land use designation according to the provisions of Fresno Municipal C
Section 12-403-B.1 With imposition of tract map conditions regarding infrastructure construction, it is

expected that development of the property will adversely impact existing city service systems or the traffii
circulation system that serves the subject site. These findings have been verified by the Public Works an(
Public Utilities Departments.
It has been further determined that all applicable mitigation measures of MEIR No. 10130 have been applie<
to the project necessary to ensure that the project will not cause significant adverse cumulative impacts
growth inducing impacts, and irreversible significant effects beyond those identified by MEIR No. 10130 a;
provided by CEQA Section 15178(a).
Per Section 211.57.1 of the California Public Resources Code (California Environmental Quality Act), it mai
be determined that a subsequent project falls within the scope of a MEIR, provided that the project does no
cause significant impacts on the environment that were not previously examined by the MEIR. Relative tc
this specific project proposal, the environmental impacts noted in the MEIR, per the 2025 Fresno Genera
Plan land use designations, include impacts associated with the light industrial land use designatior
specified for the subject property. Based on this initial study, the project does not change the land use
indicated for the subject property and will not generate additional significant effects not previously identifies
by the MEIR and no new additional mitigation measures are required. Therefore, the project proposal i;
within the scope of the MEIR as defined by Section 15177 of the CEQA Guidelines.
Moreover, as lead agency for this project, the Planning and Development Department, per Section 15177(d
of the CEQA Guidelines, has determined that all feasible mitigation measures from MEIR No. 10130 shal
apply to the project proposal as noted in the attached mitigation monitoring checklist. Public notice ha:
been provided regarding staff's finding in a manner prescribed by this section of the Guidelines and b)
Section 21092 of the Califomia Public Resources Code (CEQA provisions).
